Windt was signed by the San Diego Chargers on October 13, 2010. Windt becomes the Chargers' fifth long snapper in 2010. David Binn, James Dearth and Ryan Neill all are on Injured-Reserve and Ethan Albright snapped in the Chargers' last two games.[2] Windt is arguably most famous for snapping the direct snap and participating in the blocking on the fake punt by Eric Weddle in the 2013 season finale that propelled the Chargers' winning drive that got the team into the 2013-14 postseason.

Windt was originally born and raised in Cincinnati, OH. He attended Elder High School. He currently resides in San Diego, California with his newly wedded wife and their dog Hemmingway. Windt also has an older brother and a younger sister.
